I gave this a try, and unfortunately it won't work. pm_genpd_prepare() resumes devices without increasing the usage count, which leads to the device always being active in pm_runtime_force_suspend(). The usage count will be 1 if the device was suspended prior to entering system suspend (due to the pm_runtime_get_noresume() call in device_prepare()) or higher than 1 if the device was active. However, pm_genpd_prepare() will not resume the device if suspend_power_off is set. In that case the device will be suspended with a usage count of 1 in pm_runtime_force_suspend() or active with a usage count higher than 1. We thus can't detect at resume time whether we have force-suspended the device using the usage count. Unless someone has another clever idea I'll keep the power.is_force_suspended flag and protect it with power.lock. > > I also noticed that pm_genpd_prepare() runtime-resumes the device (when > > the power domain is in the GPD_STATE_ACTIVE state).

Looking forward to seeing patches :-) -- Regards, Laurent Pinchart
